#15 My sister (15 years older than me) read this to me when I was little. When she went away to college she would send me drawings she made of the puppy. This was my first thought for adorable animals.

In this book, there is a little puppy that is very curious. Throughout the book it shows all the things that the little puppy gets into and ends up having to go to bed without strawberry shortcake.
1. Tucson, Arizona
2. Lakeland, Florida (in between Orlando and Tampa)
3. One of each; I‘m the oldest.
4. My childhood favorite, if you ask my mom, was The Pokey Little Puppy.

#7days7books 7 books that made a deep impression or changed me.
Book 1 is the first book that I can remember. My mom read this to me over and over when I was a baby, and I had her keep reading to me almost every day when I was a little guy, even though I had it memorized long before I could ever read. The Pokey Little Puppy helped make me a book lover from infancy.
Thanks for the tag @sprainedbrain ! I went back to the beginning on this one.

• I can't believe this story is from 1942!! It's a childhood favorite and still part of my Little Golden Book collection. Tonight, Logan's Mimi read it to him and we'll be reviewing it for the blog soon. Memories are being made!! (For me, I think, good memories will always be associated with good books!!) ♥️🐶 •

“But the poky little puppy cam home after everyone else was sound asleep, and he ate up all the chocolate custard and crawled into bed happy as a lark.“
I would like to read this book to my class whenever they are having a hard time behaving and kind of teach them that if they aren't doing what they're asked, certain opportunities can be taken away.
I like this book, but it's kind of lengthy so depending on the audience, you may not keep their attention for very long. However, it is about puppies and children tend to really like them. It also kind of teaches a lesson on behaving and such since the mom of the puppies is displeased that they've been digging under the fence and denies them dessert.
I liked when the puppies started to smell food and noticed it was rice pudding so they all sprinted home.
This book would be good for kindergarteners and 1st graders. Its a small book for kids starting to read. The storyline about a puppy is a great way to introduce animals into the classroom.
This book is a picture book. It‘s a great story for kids because of the puppy‘s. The book has great pictures. Each picture shows the personality of the puppy. Great illustrations for kids. It is a fun story for students because the puppies are being playful.
On this date in 1942, Little Golden Books launched, "democratizing reading for young Americans". At this time, children's books were between $2-3 (a luxury for many families), whereas these books cost 25 cents each. Over time it wasn't just affordability, but lovable characters, memorable illustrations, and valuable lessons that kindled the joy of reading in many of us.
Which titles did you enjoy?
Newest bookish tee! And The Little Golden Books from my childhood now belong to my boys. @outofprint

We just took our morning walk in the first dusting of the year. Sadie found a stick, which she carried home and will now break into teeny, tiny pieces. I made some headway on the excellent Rosewater. #LitsyWalkers

Scored these incredible copies of some Big Golden Books at a book sale this week! The illustrations are so vibrant on the large scale!
Congrats on 75k @MicheleinPhilly !! Great rounded number 😀
I converted half my comic book/board game shelf into a baby book shelf. Other than this, my shelves still look as messy/cluttered as they always do lol

I dropped my bookmark the other day and couldn‘t find it. This morning I found it in my dog‘s crate. I guess she‘s been snuggling with it 😂😂
Thanks @sisilia for tagging me.And for taking my recommendation to read Bookworm by Lucy Mangan!

Anyone ever wonder if maybe the mom is trying to kill her puppies? 😵🐶🍫
Happy 75th Anniversary to The Poky Little Puppy!
Figured I'd knock out an #awesomeautumnbooks prompt at work today... Here are my #perfectpets because who doesn't want a puppy or a unicorn???
Fun fact: The Poky Little Puppy and lots of other Little Golden Books are celebrating their 75th anniversary this year. @Jess7

Happy National Dog Day! I got this little guy almost 3 years ago from the local shelter. The bottom photo is from the day I got him. He's done so much for my mental health. I probably wouldn't be becoming a Vet Tech if I hadn't gotten him! Thanks Kookie! ❤️🐶
Taking a slightly different spin on #GoldenYears with the Little "Golden" Books from my childhood (they were originally my older brother's from the late 70s), that now reside in my oldest baby's room. #JuneTunz #raisingreaders
Next up in my series of books that have left an impression on me #LizsLibraryLoves is the Little Golden Books. I loved these as a kid, they were cheap so we could afford them, and they were bright, interesting & easy to read for 4year old me. My sister used to read to me at night until she stopped, so I picked up Scuffy The Tugboat & started reading it myself. My faves were Poky Little Puppy, Tootle & Scuffy because I dreamed of floating away.
I just realized that May in my calendar features Pokey Little Puppy, so my stuffed Pokey has a portrait of himself to look at all month long! #LittleGoldenBooks #PokeyLittlePuppy
Spending the day with my nephew. ❤❤❤
It's #NationalPuppyDay and it's so close to Daisy's Adoptaversary! Here's a gem from when she was a sweet lil pup :') She's chewed up countless phone chargers but never a book! What a good girl!!
